Sheedy: Dubs need playmaker in Brogan mould

Former Dublin footballer Jack Sheedy warns the Division 1 winners have yet to find a playmaker to step into the boots of injured Alan Brogan.

The 2011 Footballer of the Year is out of the county’s Leinster quarter-final against Carlow or Westmeath on June 1 and Ger Brennan last week suggested he could be sidelined for the remainder of the season with a long-standing groin injury.

Sheedy, who was part of the last Dublin team to win a Division 1 league title 20 years ago, is concerned Dublin, as good as they have been this spring, don’t have a player who can pick holes in defences like the eldest Brogan brother.
